And FYI usa dont kill whales or dolphins on a massive and murderous scale like unfortunately is happening in japan. All in all, you use too much the word "perhaps" in your arguments. dear Davy, your observation that whales are mammals is correct, bravo, you would be surprised that still much people (especially children and people living in remote areas of this planet think that whales are fish.) but i cant follow you when you say that mr Watson should start to harrass the whalers of Norway, Iceland and the Faroe Islands. because , mr Watson already did harrass them full scale and has sunk whaling ships of these countries and did visit and document the annual slaughter of the dolphins (whales?) of the Faroe Islands.

And where did I write that Australians should be anti-Japanese? How old are you? Do you even understand what you read!? I hate (literally) people who take everything literally when it's convenient for them while trying to make a point!! If I stooped to your level, then I would take your words regarding the statement you made claiming that "the Australian people never supported him" literally, and ask you: does that mean all Australians are against him? If that's the case, then yes I will lose my respect for the Australian people in general, not for all the Australians... Oh, and let me tell you that if you're an Australian, then you're representing your people very poorly... Grow up!!! Where on earth did I write that I would become anti-Australian? And where did I write that Australians should be anti-Japanese?

How old are you?

Oh, and let me tell you that if you’re an Australian, then you’re representing your people very poorly…

Grow up!!!

“Our standard procedure is to follow-up certain matters disclosed to the department in a visa application, and that’s what is occurring,” a spokesman said.

“Though Mr Watson may have previously visited Australia as a tourist, the visa required for that type of visit is quite different to that for a short-term business visit, which is what is required for his forthcoming trip.

Perhaps though, the populations of these lands are too white and harder to demonize. Of course, they could also turn their efforts toward protecting species that are on the very brink of extinction like the bluefin tuna. Hey, they can still use the "evil Japanese" foil in that case. Of course, tuna aren't mammals like whales and may not get the crew the ratings they need to fill their egos and budgets but with a little inventiveness, hey, who knows?
